According to the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office, deputies took a report May 30 of possible sexual abuse. They spoke with a 15-year-old victim, who said that 57-year-old George Marshall Collins, Jr., an adult family friend, began inappropriately touching her when she was 13 years old.

The girl said that this occurred several times within the last two years, and indicated that Collins might have also done the same with another family member. The other family member is now 10 years old, but the incidents allegedly occurred when she was 8 or 9 years old.

Detectives brought Collins in for questioning. They said Collins was cooperative and admitted that he sexually battered the victims and took nude photos of them, which were recovered on his cellphone.
